I'd buy you a drink if I lived nearby. Thanks!

I'm going to give it a try now. Cheers!

[edit]: Done! Thanks again! Easy deal.

This is a link to the libxalan-c111 package.
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/ma … _amd64.deb
Taken here
https://debian.pkgs.org/10/debian-main- … 4.deb.html

I downloaded it without problems, installed it, the synaptic shows two versions that do not interfere with each other.
Brewtarget installs and works, Daedalus 5.0.

I decided not to install it. I think the version (3.0.11) requires libxalan-c-111 rather than 112 which seems to be installed already. I did get some dire security warnings of "suspicious package" and mozilla wouldn't download either of those libraries.. I didn't want to fight it or investigate further. Nor did I want to muck anything up.. hopefully the versioning will catch up eventually between distros though this software probably isn't a big priority for many. Appreciate the help. /jd

See here for the available libxalan-c packages in Devuan.

I'd be wary of installing packages from outside the official repositories but if all dependencies are properly met, you may not run into any issues.

I'm a long time Gentoo user which is my main desktop. I've installed Devuan (just upgraded to Daedalus) on a machine that was just too painfully slow to be compiling Gentoo on, and that is down in my basement brewery.

I want to share the database between my upstairs Gentoo pc and the basement brewery pc. Gentoo didn't have but an old Brewtarget software that I use so I manually upgraded it to latest brewtarget-3.0.11. Devuan only offers up to 3.0.6. Looks like lots of fixes in 3.0.11 vs 3.0.6. If I use 2 different versions, I think it won't be good for the shared database. I backup and restore it between the 2 pc's.

I installed the 3.0.11 version on this Devuan machine, but when trying to run it - it complains that there is no libxalan-c, which I think does not exist in the official repositories. So my question is - should I look around for that library and if I find it.. would it hurt anything to install? Thinking there must be a reason it isn't on the official repositories.

I could also raise an issue on the brewtarget github: https://github.com/Brewtarget/brewtarget/releases but thought I would ask here first.
thanks, HD

[edit] On the gentoo box when installing, I also had to install libxerces-c. Hopefully the Devuan box won't also want that..
